Chapter 51
Jack seemed genuinely interested in the increased interest rate. He even considered transferring funds in from another account. That account contained income he had earned through other means, but since he hadn't brought the card today, he used the one where his salary was deposited.
Managing both accounts together would be much more convenient if the interest rate was higher.
"Exactly!" Raina's smile grew even brighter.
"If your total deposit reaches one million dollars, not only will the interest rate increase accordingly, but our bank will also offer an additional 1% interest as a special benefit."
She paused and asked tentatively, "Do you have deposits elsewhere, sir?"
Jack nodded. "Yes. Can I transfer them here directly?"
"Of course," Raina replied sweetly. "I'd be delighted to assist you. Please, follow me to the VIP lounge. I'll prepare some drinks for you."
Seated on a leather couch in the VIP lounge, sipping the citrus iced tea Raina had brewed for him, Jack experienced the comfort of being treated as a valued client for the first time.
During the explanation and signing process, Raina stayed close to him, the subtle scent of her perfume occasionally wafting past his nose. Her professional attire revealed just enough to graze against Jack occasionally, adding a layer of indulgence to the experience.
After completing all the formalities, Jack stood to leave. Raina escorted him warmly to the door, taking the opportunity to inquire about his personal information along the way.
Just as Jack stepped out of the bank, he unexpectedly saw a strikingly pretty girl enter. Upon closer look, he realized it was Amelia, one of his dorm mates from the shared dorm room. For original chapters go to Find✶Novel.net
Although he wasn't particularly familiar with Amelia, Jack still smiled and greeted her politely.
"Hi!"
Amelia returned his smile graciously.
"Amelia, what brings you here?" Raina greeted Amelia warmly as well upon seeing her.
Amelia responded, "Oh, Raina. I just came to withdraw some money for my living expenses. By the way, how's your wedding planning with Logan Hughes going?"
It turned out that Raina and Amelia were not only from the same hometown but also schoolmates. Despite Raina having graduated and started working, the two had kept in touch.
Raina sighed with a hint of frustration.
"Don't even ask. My mom insists that Logan buy a house before the wedding-but we can't afford it. The pressure is overwhelming!"
Given the soaring housing prices, even locals found it incredibly challenging to purchase a home. Hearing this, Amelia sighed empathetically.
At that moment, Raina had already taken her seat at the counter to assist Amelia with her withdrawal. Out of the blue, she asked, "By the way, Amelia, do you know that guy from earlier?"
Amelia nodded. "Yes, I know him. Why?"
A glimmer of interest flashed in Raina's eyes.
"What do you think of him? Does he have a girlfriend?"
It seemed she had developed a keen interest in Jack.
Amelia hesitated. Although she knew Jack, they weren't close. As for whether he had a girlfriend, she wasn't sure either.
After a brief pause, Amelia replied, "He's okay, I guess. But I think he's single." Raina's eyes lit up instantly.
